Advantages: Excellent Digital Zoom Function, Superb Quality Pictures, So, so easy to use

Disadvantages: LCD Screen Impossible to see in sunlight, Eats batteries for fun!!!

After deciding to invest in my first digital camera, I managed to pick up an immaculate second-hand Finepix 2400 off eBay for a measly £150!!! A complete bargain I know and what a camera I got for my cash! 5 minutes after unpacking it I was snapping away at anything I could catch in the viewfinder. I was impressed with its quality of images at the highest resolution (1600 x 1200) and even the 640 x 480 prints were good. The only grumble I have with this camera is the LCD screen is totally impossible to see in bright sunlight although you can just about see the image in the shade.
For anyone who is looking to buy their first digital camera, I can't recommend them enough. Just make sure your first purchase is a few rechargable batteries!!!! Oh, and a bigger Smartmedia Card. The supplied 8MB one only hold 10 high resolution images. You can pick up a 64MB Card (holds 82 high-res imagies) for as little as £21.

Totally Recommended!!!


*** Update ***
After reading a few opinions, I've decided to add this little piece.

I've seen this camera for sale (locally) between £240 - £280, so that's why I think I had a bargain.

Also, this being my first digital camera, I think that anyine looking to buy one couldn't go wrong buying this one, so that is why I described this as 'an ideal first digital camera'

Hope this clears it up....
